Can you take a Vyvanse and an oxycodone 500 capsule together?

Last week I took vyvanse and oxycodone together and got very sick, I'm fine taking oxycodone alone, and vyvanse alone, but together they make me very sick. I actually did it again today because I thought maybe the sickness was a coincidence, but sick again!

On Walgreen's website it says there are no drug interactions with the two, but I felt horrible and threw up a lot.

In fact I had to vomit in the middle of posting this, so don't do it!

Is it safe to take adderall and Vyvanse together you have been prescribed 50 mg of Vyvanse to take in the am then in the afternoon 30mg of Adderall Is this safe?

First of all, 50 mg of Vyvanse is basically equivalent to 20mg of Adderall XR, so you're not really taking as much as it looks like. They are safe to take together because Vyvanse is all a d-amphetamine, and Adderall is a mixture of that plus other types of amphetamines. However, 40 mg of Adderall is the maximum recommended daily dose for ADHD, but up to 60 mg is okay for narcolepsy, but I don't think what you've got is too much unless you're sensitive to amphetamines.

I'm guessing that if it's for ADHD your doctor prescribed that mix because Vyvanse is made to last up to 14 hours and there is no quick release version available. You might need a little boost in the afternoon if that's when you do a lot of work, but you can't take more Vyvanse or you'll never sleep, so quick release Adderall would definitely do the trick.

Yes it's safe, and I'm trying to basically get that same prescription. I already take 50 mg of Vyvanse daily, and it starts to lose its effect by the time I'm doing most of my work so I need an extra kick that won't keep me up all night. Tell me if it works for you :)

This is the original answer, but he doesn't know what might work for you better than you and your doctor do; meds are very personal. Anyway here:

If I remember correctly, vyvanse is meant to last over a long period, so yea, 80 grams per day expanded over the entire day(16-18 hours that you are awake) is safe. If you are taking it for obesity/epilepsy/narcolepsy/etc, that is fine. I have found however, for adhd, it seems to work better for me at lower doses then at higher doses. If this the initial prescription that the doctor gave you, or a revised prescription? If it is the initial prescription, I would ask the doctor for a lower booster, but keep the vyvanse the same. If it it because lower doses do not seem to affect you, however, then it is fine. But, keep in mind that your diet dramatically effects how much adderall you absorb, as well as long it stays in your system. This won't affect vyvanse as much because it is a prodrug, but make sure you notify your doctor of any changes in your diet, and any euphoria you might experience. It is common to experience euphoria right after a change in dosage, but if it seems to last more then a week then your dosage is too high and you are at risk of becoming dependent... which is not a good thing.

No, Vyvanse isn't prescribed for any type of weight control treatment.

But, amphetamines are also extremely additive and because of this physicians are no longer allowed to prescribe them for weight control treatment.

What happens when you snort Vyvanse?

Vyvanse is a prodrug developed with an amino acid, l-lysine and dextroamphetamine. The fact that the drug is attached to the amino acid requires the digestive route to active the amphetamine within Vyvanse. Vyvanse was designed to deter abuse and to provide smoother coverage of ADHD symptoms through a day - some studies showing up to 14 hours of symptom relief.

Snorting Vyvanse will not result in a faster onset of actions.

Does Vyvanse have any long term side effects?

Yes, it does. Studies have proven that long term use of this medication has been linked to an addiction to the medication, building up a tolerance to the medication, severe and sometimes dangerous weight loss, and stunted growth (common in children).

Can you mix Adderall with Vyvanse and alcohol?

Correct Answer: NO - You Should NOT Drink Alcohol while Taking Vyvanse

Alternative Answer: If you are taking Vyvanse and choose to drink - you need to be very careful. Even if you have never had a history of substance abuse - - you could potentially open a door to abuse that you wish you never opened. Some people will tell you that Vyvanse will make you feel like you don't need to drink very much - - however, everyone is different. After a few drinks, you may feel like you need a boost, and you may be tempted to take another pill - - DO NOT DO THIS!!! Taking multiple Vyvanse Pills has been a terrible experience and has nearly ruined my life. The more pills that you take, the more you can drink without crashing. During this time - you become completely detached from the real world, and it's possible that you could become violent, and lash out at your loved ones for no reason.

Seriously - - do not drink while taking Vyvanse....

What is Vyvanse?

Vyvanse is a central nervous stimulant which affects chemicals in the brain, increasing concentrations of certain neurotransmitters. Vyvanse is approved to treat ADHD in both children and adults. Vyvanse is the brand-name for lisdexamfetamine. Lisdexamfetamine is a prodrug of dextroamphetamine. Dextroamphetamine is a controlled substance in most countries and is only dispensed under the authorization of a doctor.

Dextroamphetamine works by increasing two chemicals in the brain: dopamine and norepinephrine. Both chemicals have been shown to play a role in focus and attention, and by raising these levels dextroamphetamine is able to help a person concentrate and sit still for longer periods of time.

Vyvanse carries unique properties due to being a prodrug of amphetamine. Vyvanse is inactive until an enzyme works to activate allowing a longer duration of symptom relief (up to 14 hours) and less abusable properties since it must be swallowed to become active.

Vyvanse is available in doses of 20mg, 30mg, 40mg, 50mg, 60mg, and 70mg. In Canada, Vyvanse is only available in doses of 20mg, 40mg, and 60mg.
